Wait no because using the Swiss with different Ruben hey everyone and welcome to my channel I’m Nikki and today’s video I’m going to be sharing with you guys three dinners that are quick and easy and lower in points on Weight Watchers and just some dinners that we like to eat during the week so if you guys enjoy
This video or find it helpful please ahead and give it a like And subscribe to my channel I really appreciate it thank you guys for watching and let’s go ahead and get started with what I’m making for dinner tonight so both Adam and I have been craving fish tacos
Lately and recently I bought these tortillas and really enjoyed them we heated them up on the stove and it really makes such a difference I don’t know why I’ve never done that before but usually I just microwave them and so cooking them on the stove really made a
Difference and I thought it added even more flavor and was just really good I feel like that’s also been why I’ve been craving fish tacos on these specifically that’s what we’re going to be doing today I’m not actually going to be making the fish I’m going to be using
This breaded fish that I just got from Walmart it’s just airfried fish fillets and honestly I think I might only use one it’s two points for one or five points for two but I’m also going to be making some shrimp today which is zero points so I think I’d rather fill up on
That and get a little bit more protein in anyway that way I get a little bit of the flavor of the fish fillets but then I also have some shrimp thong here I’ve got some raw shrimp I have about a serving for both Adam and I so even if
It’s too much to fit on the tacos I’ll probably just eat it on the side I’m just going to be cooking it up on the stove we’re going to be having the tacos I’m probably GNA do three of them for three tortillas it is four points I
Think I’m G to do three and I’m going to have the fish filet the shrimp that I cook up and then I’m going to make a SLO for it usually I like to buy the SLO from Trader Joe’s but it really doesn’t matter that much I got this one from
Walmart and it’s just their tricolor COA mix so it’s got green cabbage carrots and red cabbage I’m only going to be using half of this bag today and we’ll probably still have leftovers but I’m going to save the other half for a sesame noodle recipe that I’m going to
Be making I’m going to go ahead and add half of that bag to a bowl and start making the sloth I’m going to use a tablespoon of non-fat plain Chobani Greek yogurt I’m going to use a tablespoon of this Daisy light sour cream because a half tablespoon is zero
Points so if I just add one and actually we probably won’t even use all the SLO today I just won’t even have to attract the amount that I use so adding the Greek yogurt and sour cream will be zero points then I’m going to add a little
Bit of lime juice and I just buy this little container like this I don’t have any fresh h Ino so I’m just going to use some of these diced jalapenos that are in a jar I’m going to use a little bit of onion salt some cilantro which I
Definitely think fresh cilantro would be better but I just don’t have any so this is going to work today then I’m just going to add a little bit of this taco seasoning just because I’m out of cumin so you can also use cumin but this is
Pretty much the same I’m going to be mixing all that together to make the SLO and then I’m also going to make a side of Spanish style rice so this recipe is actually in my cookbook although today I’m just going to be making it a little bit different because I have this
Spanish W rice that I’m using so I won’t really have to add many seasonings I’m just going to go ahead and cook this how the package says so you just boil the water add the rice in and cover it for 12 minutes and then you fluff it with a
Fork then after that’s done I’m going to go ahead and add some Rotel and corn so I’m just going to add the whole can of both of these so it’ll be a filling portion of rice that we have it’s going to make four servings and we’ll have two
Leftover and then two for tonight and they’ll be filling because of the tomato and corn and then to that I might just add a little more like onion salt and T seasoning but I’ll taste it to see how it is because I don’t know how seasoned
The Spanish rice is I can’t remember so we’ll see how that is this rice is made from lentils so it is actually only three points for the serving of a quarter of the bag which is how much I’ll be using so I’m going to go ahead and get started with everything I’m
Going to start boiling the water for the rice first and then making the SLO when I do cook the shrimp I’m just going to be using this bang bang seasoning so I had a few seasonings to choose from and this is the one I decided on and I hope
It’s good I honestly don’t even think we’ve used it before it’s unopened so I think we bought this a while ago and we need to use it up so we’re going to be trying this with the shrimp and then I will show you guys the tacos Assembled Once the water was done boiling for the r Rice I just added it in and let it sit for 12 minutes then once it was done cooking there was a little bit of extra liquid so I went ahead and strained that out then I added the can of corn and the
Can of Rotel and mixed that together then to the rice I added a little bit of garlic salt and some taco Seasoning Okay so my dinner is done I made three tacos I made one that was all shrimp I was going to do two and then the fish fillet ended up being bigger than I thought and I just ended up using one so I did a little bit on one and then this
One is half fish half shrimp so I have one shrimp one fish and then one half and half then I have my Spanish rice here this is only three points for the serving the tortillas are four points and then the fish fillet that I had is
Two points this entire meal is N9 points on Weight Watchers it is going to be so filling and it is a good way to get a lot of veggies in in my fitness pal I went ahead and track it as well so this is about 612 calories and it’s got 40
Grams of protein and I’m going to go ahead and dig in I will be back with meal number two okay so I’m back with dinner number two and tonight I’m going to be making like a chicken alfredo pasta but I’m going to make it lower Point by using some Laughing Cow and
Some fat-free milk I’m also going to use the burilla Protein Plus Penny pasta so what I’m going to do to get started is in this little pot I’m just going to add a cup of the fair life milk it’s two points for the cup then I’m going to add
Three of these light Laughing Cow wedges each one is a point and I usually just start the sauce early so that this has time to melt because these kind of take a little bit of time to melt but that’s what I’m going to be doing for the sauce
To that I’m also going to add a little bit of this minced garlic then I’m also going to add some basil and some onion salt which I think fresh basil would be much better but this is just what I have I’ve got some chicken breast that I’m
Just going to be cutting up and seasoning and cooking on the stove and we’ll just put that on top of the pasta or mix it in and then I always like to add some type of veggies so I’m going to cut up a zucchini and use some mushrooms
So I’m going to cook the chicken first and then I’m going to put the chicken off to the side and cook the veggies in the same pan that I cooked the chicken in while I start boiling the water to make the pasta so I’m going to kind of
Have everything going at once but it’ll be pretty quick and easy and the meal will be nine points Total I had the pasta sauce simmering for most of the time that the chicken was cooking and I just continued to whisk it frequently while the chicken was cooking I decided to add a little bit of extra seasoning and I just cooked that until it was all the way done through and
After the sauce had been cooking for a little bit I went ahead and added the parmesan cheese in I continued to let that simmer while I diced up the zucchini and mushrooms and then once the chicken was done cooking I just put it in a bowl to the side and then I used
That same pan to cook the veggies in it once everything was done I went ahead and assembled the pasta so the sauce was still a little bit liquidy but once I mixed it with the pasta and veggies it definitely thickened up a little bit and it turned out to be the perfect Consistency Okay so here’s the finished meal assembled this is nine points total for the entire bowl of pasta it is six points for the serving of protein pasta that I used and then the sauce is three points the chicken is zero the mushroom mushrooms and zucchini or zero so this
Is my entire dinner then in my fitness pal I did go ahead and track it and it’s about 580 calories and it’s got 60 g of protein so this will definitely be filling it smells really good and I already tried a little bit of the sauce
And it was really good so that is it for meal number two and I’ll be back with dinner three okay I am back with dinner number three for this video so today I’m going to be making Reuben Pizza bakes these are one of our favorite meals to
Make although we don’t have it all the time because we usually just don’t have all the ingredients for it but when I do buy ingredients to make different Ruben recipes and stuff this is one of our favorites and it is so easy to throw together I’m going to be using these
Baking dishes that I got from Ikea they are 6X 8×2 and like I said I just got them at Ikea I’m just going to be spraying them with some non-stick spray and then this is what I put the two ingredient dough in and I’ve actually been par baking it for about 10 minutes
Before I add the toppings and I found that we like the crust a little bit better that way so I’m going to be doing that to make the two ingredient dough I use 1 cup of this Chobani non-fat plain Greek yogurt I use 1 and 1/3 cup of
Regular allpurpose flour and then I use a teaspoon of baking powder and then I’m also going to add some seasonings usually like some garlic or onion salt and that’s usually what I just add to that but then what I’m going to be doing I don’t have any thousand island
Dressing so I’m just going to be kind of making my own sauce using some light mayo some ketchup and then some pickles and salt and pepper so that’s going to be for the sauce that I’m going to use as the base then for the meat I’m going
To be using pastrami so this is just the Hillshire Farms brand we’re just going to be using 2 oz for a point it is 70 calories and I just feel like this tastes really similar to corn beef when it comes to Reuben recipes so this works really well it’s got really good flavor
And one point for the serving is not bad then I’ve got some sauerkraut for zero points so I’m just going to be using a good amount of this on there we both really like sauerkraut even though it does definitely affect our stomach but it is good for you and it tastes really
Good so I’m going to be using that I’ll do the sauce the meat the sauerkraut and then I’m going to top it with some light mozzarella I don’t have any swiss cheese usually I would would use reduced fat Charlesburg or something like that but I don’t have it today and the mozzarella
Works just as well so I definitely recommend using the Swiss with different Reuben recipes like this because it tastes really good but I’m going to be using the mozzarella today it works just as well it melts nicely and it’s only two points for the serving making this
Entire Pizza bake 13 points on Weight Watchers and I’m going to be making two of them Adam and I each eat our own and we do have to use some weeklys usually it’s a higher Point dinner but so worth it it’s so filling and it’s one of our
Favorites to eat I’m going to get started making the two ingredient dough first I do a batch and I it in half and then I’m going to put it in the pan and bake it for 10 minutes and then I’m going to get started with the rest of
The toppings I need to make the sauce cutting up the pickles and adding these two things but that’s what I’m going to be Doing Once I pressed the dough into the baking dishes I pop them in the oven to just parbake for about 10 minutes and then I’m just making the sauce so I diced up some pickle then I added a tablespoon of ketchup a tablespoon of light mayo and I
Just used my food skill to weigh it out I also added some garlic salt some minced onion and some pepper and I just whisk that together to form the Sauce O okay so these came out of the oven after 20 minutes and you can see the bottoms are nice and brown that’s usually how I can tell when they’re done is when it gets nice and brown and toasted then the pizza everything else is melted the cheese and everything and it looks and
Smells so good I’m so excited for this usually I just cut it in half and then I pick up the half and eat it so this final Reuben Pizza bake comes out to 13 points total on Weight Watchers it is nine points for the serving of two
Ingredient dough two for the cheese one for the past me and then one for the sauce sometimes I track the sauce sometimes I don’t today I’m just doing it for this video 13 points is not bad this is filling and it is so good like I said I would rather have this than
Getting takeout pizza so many times this is 13 points and then I also attracted in my fitness pil and it’s about 536 calories and it has 37 g of protein this would also be good if I just flattened out the two ingredient dough and didn’t
Use the dish like this if I just did like a baking sheet and did it as like a thin crust pizza although it would be a little harder to spread all the sauce out but this is just one of my favorite meals to have I love anything Reuben and
I just feel like these lower Point substitutes really make it work and it still tastes really good so like I said I would usually use Swiss cheese but I just did the mozzarella today because that’s what I had and it’s two points for the serving so that’s not bad but
Yeah that wraps it up for today’s video so I hope you guys found this video helpful if you did please go ahead and give it a like And subscribe to my channel I really appreciate it these are just three dinners that we like to have to have good servings and full of
Veggies and protein that are still pretty low on points on Weight Watchers so I hope you guys found this helpful thank you for watching and I will see you next Time
